we saw this news, our northern greece, where a cargo plane carrying weapons is crashed, killing all 8 crew members, creak authorities say it was traveling from serbia to bangladesh via jordan. but nearly a 3rd of the way into the flight. the aircraft made a sharp. you turn before crashing near the greek town of kabbalah cyprus, robbie has more eye witnesses describe a plane on fire lighting up the night sky. the crash of an ant enough cargo plane, tearing through an open field. your husband, their neighbor, said if i was to speak to them as i wonder how it didn't fall in our houses, because it came from over there. it was full of smoke. it had a noise i can describe and went over the mountain. it passed mountain and turned and crashed into the fields. there were flames. we were scared, a lot of cars came, but they could not approach because there were continuous explosions. what after the scale of devastation at 1st confusing people who saw the plane come down level

men now look at the vein of what we see something bright coming down from the direction of the castle, but we thought it was the light night after death. we set fire fire, what is it? is it a plain? what is it said one of them by the time we understood what it was, it had fallen to the ground that we were terrified or we also had children keep coming. we're screaming, shouting, 1000 local residents and 1st responders describe ongoing explosions following the crash dog bure shipper. lee lee, your uniforms, crash to the ground and develop into a large fire with many continuous exposure audio. greek media reports hazardous materials were on board including explosives. the method is, is of this, the new victim is the, the air measurements at the moment have not shown anything. but nonetheless, instability of the field was observed in other words, and turns smoke and heat, as well as a white substance that we do not recognize. so

a special armed forces team has to inform us of what it is and whether we can enter the field a law to merge. the flight was operated by meridian or ukraine based cargo carrier . it originated in serbia, the country's defense ministry confirming the cargo of unit bullet is naesha. you joke with a plane was carrying 11 and a half tons of products of our arms trade for the end buyer in bangladesh. the buyer was that bangladesh ministry of defense, as a fully permitted and use and by the flight route was mr. with technical landings in our man read. i've met bad and was planned to land in deca as the final destination. la d. more moments before the plane went down, the pilot radioed about a problem with one of the engines requesting an emergency landing, but unable to make it to the nearest airport. the journey ending in a field in northern greece is in basra, theology 0 a summer. he wave is sweeping parts of europe, sparking wildfires contributing to hundreds of heat related deaths. at least 3000

people had to flee their homes as a wildfire burned out of control in the mountain range in southern spain. several fires were also burning in the south of france, forcing 11000 people to evacuate. houghton, gusty winds are making it difficult for crews to contain the flames. a more than a 100 firefighters are trying to extinguish while fires on the greek island of crete and northern europe is paying for the heat wave to in the u. k. the government held an emergency meeting is forecast to protect reco temperatures on monday and tuesday, that the barber reports from london in parts of southern europe like here in spain, forest fires and nothing new could conditions experienced in the south soon be the norm elsewhere. here in britain, the government's been holding emergency meetings and for the 1st time a red warning has been issued for the heat rather than floods. winds. people are being warned that a 50 percent chance of temperatures reaching 40 celsius more than one degree above

the old time record. a studies found heat waves across europe have increased $3.00 to $4.00 times faster than in the rest of the northern mid latitudes, including north america. and much of that is driven by changes to atmospheric circulation, known as the jet stream. whether or not that's directly due to human activity, scientists say our continued use of fossil fuels means we're already seeing what was previously predicted for 2050. we are still increasing greenhouse gas in the atmosphere, which means global temperatures are increasing. and this means that this is probably something that will be arisen because life in 3 decades to come. the one thing might also be to change that conversation. but actually, it's not that it's the question about life and death and not just for the global south, but also for citizens in the u. k. and despite news reports concentrating on, seems like this, you can helpful for it is a warning. the heat can be deadly even for healthy people. climate change have been driving extreme temperatures for decades,

and the heats killing more and more people here in england in the summer of 2020 more than 2 and a half 1000 excess deaths were attributed to heat waves, and they've only become more intense and more frequent since then, the british red cross predicts that the annual heat wave death toll could have tripled by the middle of this century. in much of europe, the increase in heat waves poses urgent questions about how society adapts from education to working patterns, to transport and housing. some believe it's high time. we faced up to a hot future on a day baba is live for us now outside, guys, halls, hospital and londoner, nadeem. i'm obviously the health services gonna have to deal with all of this bow. seriously. is the government taking it there? well, they are taking it very seriously. neve, if you consider that they've held a series of emergency meetings, known as cobra meetings, with cabinet ministers and other officials. the latest one came on saturday,

birts boris johnson, still prime minister for now did not attend, chose not to attend that meeting. it has come under some criticism for it. the new hell secretary steve barkley has said that extra measures will be brought in for monday. and tuesday, in terms of ambulance services, which are wearing a lot of people, he said there will be more people ah, ah, working as cool handlers and extra working hours. he's also suggested that hospitals, like the one behind me try to use all of their capacity. well, many people working in the house system say there is hardly any spare capacity. the bigger problem is, ambulance is turning up but not being allowed to get in, get their patients into hospital already. and we're predicting way we're expecting to see arise in problems health problems related to the temperatures. what will they be? well, listen on on monday and tuesday, there is a red warning. it's the 1st time that that's been for heat. and the meteorologist

is saying as a 50 percent chance, as i said in my report of going over 40 degrees celsius and the college of paramedics is asking people to keep an eye on their neighbors, particularly vulnerable people wanting the such extreme temperatures can really affect people even if they consider themselves healthy, they're also asking people to stay indoors if they can, between 11 in the morning and 4 in the afternoon, the hottest times. and, and yet a that really gearing up for unprecedented and situations. one senior official in the national health service has actually said that the infrastructure, the buildings like the hospitals, are simply not good up in terms of fans and air conditioning. and that's posing a real burden right now. and the team talking about infrastructure, how is the country coping? how are people still going to work, how the trains to running on so well,

i think there's a lot of trepidation and lots of uncertainty. network rail witcher runs the actual infrastructure for the railways. has warned that those kind of temperatures that have been predicted could mean that the actual rails are 20 degrees celsius hotter than normal. they can buckle extremely unsafe circumstances if trains of going fast . so they're saying they will be slower. people should expect delays, even cancellations or elsewhere. schools are thinking of closing early, but they're putting the emphasis on the education system is putting emphasis on keeping children in school at least for the next few days or so that they don't miss out on urgent learning. and the amber warning which is already in place for sunday are, says that term we can expect an increase in water safety incidence as people flock to, you know, coast lines, the beach, rivers and lakes and so on. so there are wanting people to be careful around the water. they're also saying that this means substantial changes are,

are needed to work and routines. will, the government's message is simply, it's up to employers and their employees to try to thrash out some compromise. they're not saying the workplaces should actually allow people to work from home. if temperatures go above a certain temperature, which has been seen in other countries in europe, neeve er nadeem stakeholders in barbara and london there. thank you. wow, da 0 senior meteorologist everton fox explains what's driving the extreme weather in europe where heat waves occur because the heat has been pumping its way out of the north west of africa across spain, in ports where we have seen a record breaking temperatures. carla cloud, just off shore from the i bear in peninsula been drawing winds in from a suddenly direction that's going to continue making its way further north was as the source high this area of high pressure here just ease is a little further east. was it opened the floodgates for that heat to serge up across surf, france pushing up towards the u. k. by the time we come to monday,

tampa is here getting up to around 35 celsius in london or more touch warmer still as we go on into tooth and somewhere across the u. k. into the south and east, i suspect we'll see temps getting close to if not touching. 40 degrees celsius. thank me. by wednesday something a little fresher, just topples in from western past that heat to search it into central parts of europe. so is it down to climate change? that's the big question. well, as you can see from these nasa chars, climate scientists have been telling us for decades now that we are led to see an increase in the severity and the frequency of heat ways because of global warming. and we take a closer look at the u. k. here some of that evidence here as well, since 1900 to 2002 temperatures of reach 35 degrees celsius on 9 occasions since 2003. we've seen that occur on 7 a k to 7 out of the 10 hottest years here. have occurred since 2003,

plenty more had on the news hour, including voting as underway for a bi election in pakistan's, most populous province will be in law to talk about what's the stake, a search for justice, why crimes, old and new going unpunished in lebanon, in sport action from day 3, at the open championship, where the agent is chasing his 1st victory in a major russian missile strikes of had a number of towns in ukraine. it follows a declaration from moscow that it was ramping up a tax in all operational areas. russia says its force is destroyed and arms factory in the city of denise pro, for moorland spring in adam fisher in key. if a what more can you tell us? i allen about sir this declaration for moscow that they are ramping up their

offensive. well, essentially what we're seeing is a war of attrition being fought into parts of the country. you have the russian saying that they are reinforcing areas around the south. the likes of carson and round about that area to at that they're saying that they're expecting a ukrainian assault. that's because at the ukranian foreign minister said last week that he was going to amass a 1000000 man army. that more a desirable than actually achievable. i suspect, but they were going to move to try and retake the so, so the russians are at this moment, reinforcing their security, reinforcing their forces in that area to try and stop any possible ukrainian advance the ukrainians themselves say that they've inflicted some damage on the russians just in the last 24 hours that the of attack can keep, that they have killed 36 russian soldiers, but more importantly they have a tight russian ammunition dumps and supply dumps as they try to do this reinforcement. meanwhile, this seems to have been this pause briefly in and around the don bass region while

the russians start to get more men and weapons in place. the feeling is that they're about to launch a significant assault in that area. because of course, the don barson taking control of that became the me more to him for the ukrainians after at the decided that they were not going to be able to take the capital in the early days of the war. so the ukrainians are bracing themselves for this assault, particularly in the hands region because if they take control of that they will have the effect of control of all. busy of the don't bass, no russians defense secretary has said that his intention is that they will start to reinforce their military positions by attacking essentially a areas that need to be attacked to help the rush in advance in those areas. presidents lensky here. and keith has seen that essentially as the russian saying that they are going to target more civilians. and we've had from the ukrainians, particularly over the last few weeks. that he believe that the russians are

deliberately targeting rushes, which of course it deliberately targeting civilians which would be a war crime. and they point to a number of office blocks in residential blocks one just a few days ago that had been hit by the russians. now the russians say the one that was a, just a few days ago near the black sea was where the senior leadership of the ukranian navy were meeting a claim denied by the ukrainians. not something the al jazeera can independently verify, but you can see that both sides 20 weeks, into this war or no bedding in, in the respective positions. which means that this war still appears to have a long way to go and on. and you, you did touch upon it, but of course all of this house, grave implications for civilian sir in ukraine after a string of attacks nationwide in residential areas, reminders of the intensity of these attacks. well, even just in the last years we're hearing about an assault and mc alive, which is down near the black sea. there, there are missiles fired into the city and at least 3 people have been killed. at

that, the bombardment started just before dawn and continued until just a few hours ago. and that scene is being repeated right across the country. a number of towns and villages and cities are being targeted by both sides. and the reality is that while military targets may well be what they see the after a lot of the brunt of this war, as we all know, is being born by civilians. alan fisher in care of many things. though visual's been held in sri lanka to remember those killed during political unrest. ango for the soaring cost of fuel, food and medicines, has led to months of anti government protests. and l fernandez has more from a market in colombo traders at this sunday market. see, they're having trouble selling their goods. even the things that they bring dean, the out, are not selling enough for them to make a profit. now, if i just take you here, this is basically a greens store,

a staple industry lunk and died. we have greens for pressure, for sugar, for diabetes of fob hot ailments, the works. and even here, prices have gone up early. a few who the about do want to be the databases. oh, you can't afford to do that because the cost of living is so high. so we have to cut down those things. even transportation, balancing that reducing purchasing power with the need to put nutritious meals on the table is one of the biggest challenges facing she lumpkins. amid this economic crisis, the acting president runner, vicar missing her, says between 6 and 7 and a half 1000000 people are malnourished. and the country is really struggling to get its economy. in order for us will anchor is appealing to friendly countries for help with its flagging economy. india has extended a new credit line, worth $55000000.00 for fertilizer imports. china has announced assistance were

$73000000.00 for the supply of essential goods, but has stayed silent on for lancoste request to defer the loan repayment. columbo is also seeking and i am asked bail our package to tied over the worst economic crisis since independence. okay, will it speak to aaron, rick ramirez. ne, he's a member of parliament of sir lanka and the former state minister of finance. he joins us from the capital colombo, welcome to the news hour. i've mentioned there, of course, for those friendly countries that have offered financial help. but what do we do to deal with? the immediate challenge facing millions of sri lankan are rampant inflation and soaring o casa across the board. thank you. yes. so the media challenges that are running into the people on the street trying to get to get shop is being shot

ages and then pharmaceuticals for then for the license, if you are funded by you need about roughly about $400000000.00 a month for about another $100000000.00 on gas promises because it's so expensive. so maybe supplies and also fairly countries actually say that in the media on the streets, in colombo, they can issue as much as you have already said. busy discussion the dynamic, i think that the new government is in place next week. i would expect to sign an agreement, a stock level agreement with the i mean, within weeks that would be the beginning of actually trying to turn things around within weeks. but what would it mean in terms of how ordinary people experience the,

the positive results of that the intervention by the i'm f i think the impact on the, i'm certainly not in. it's more long. if you give a statement to the market, because we have been away from the markets and then actually to get an i'm, if i'm approved by the i'm, it might take several months, but this is only the beginning. so meanwhile we have to be. busy working towards that extend the facility but we have to be far more emergency fund be but the bus stop level agreement in place. also countries are supplying countries. busy we need to. busy visit a, make a request on paying for the india has been sent in some areas and so friendly countries including india, japan. i think that the new government contract in servers and i think the bunk

bed be at least at the beginning of shopping, the problems on the streets. and as i mentioned earlier, china is announced, assistance with $73000000.00, but it's remained very quiet on, on, through lancaster request to defer it's loan payment should sri lanka, slunk an economy, an economist be concerned about eventually being incredibly indebted to the likes of china laced down the line. yes, so be come even the suspense that came from china. that's all the media really. but the be beyond the media release the really sure. as you suggest, that is actually that restructuring and not restructuring. china has about 10 percent, maybe be about 30 percent, the world bank, about 9 percent, and then be about me and then you can show something, bonds. but if you take the chinese that's made by the government by china has also

be lending china bank and also through the chinese development bank, all of that chinese really percent of the total not then. therefore we expect from the buy electric. we see the apartment. we expect the china, the chinese and the indian, based on the same basis and provide me ways to with settling our funding debt so that we can get the economy moving. and we meet for very, very briefly this all this international debt with a lot of china and other countries exposed for lanka to political interference. yes. so it's going to be differently because they have that implications for the dates of the time of the region. as we all

know, india and china have a different reason to be involved in the region india because generally in geography, maybe are very close to things within the f. b. b want to make sure that she has an independent party in policy. we don't want to have any, any needs and therefore we are following up on particularly the ration giants to operate that is restructuring. so that we can stand on our own feet and pick them up in a member of parliament of slang, current for mistake. minister finance. many thanks. thank you. focusing is underway in a local bi election and pakistan punjab province, which could have national implications. prime minister shall sharif mostly believe, hold the narrow majority and the provincial assembly. from the threat from enron

cons p t i party, taken the province would be a major win for the for the prime minister was ousted in april ma hider. as for from the hor, we are outside of boiling station in the city of the hall. in a congested part of the city, people have been turning up to god there war. and this particular bi election that are over 8000 boiling stations across this province, which has a lot of follow up regarding the pow wow, how, when it comes to quality. it is also the economic hard land of the country, the agricultural box gate, and has been voted number of states rendered dumpster their national assembly. so whoever, when there isn't a good position to be able to bomb the government at descent, where to go illusion of parties out there, did ron gone through a ward of no confidence that gave miniature of this province became a minister only of redgate members of iran. con subordinate defected,

dagwoods deemed outlawed by the court, and therefore did by election taking place. no admin, login, political activity tempered flaring. however, so far we have heard no reports of any violent people have been talking the award. if emerson calling to party wins this particular election, they will have the next government head and one job. and that's going to have huge implications when it comes to the employee. and also the future of prime minister job box jedi gave to follow after the award of no confidence as to what that's affordable. what are done, political parties. enron upon party. it is the largest party within the country. he had the most number of the in the national assembly before he was out there, a member of god resigning from that position. so he did a grow. sure. just indeed,

the badger, grounded upon job and a few a general budget on hand good under decision and the outcomes that come out of hair sunday as well, day for international justice. it aims to highlight the fight against impunity. and the rights of victims is a cause that acts written lebanon have been pursuing for decades. as a lot of reports from beirut, lebanon has never really moved on from its 15 year civil war. 3 decades later, society is as divided, and former warlords are still in politics. a general amnesty has left crimes unpunished. while the families of an estimated 17000 people missing are still waiting for answers. the lack of accountability have deeper as causes that were never address at the end of the war. people will continue to find themselves victims after corrupt, and i'm just system until that system is up with an entirely. it's

a system that suspended the investigation and to one of the biggest blasts and history caused by a stockpile of ammonium nitrate. i'd be able to port 2 years on political interference, has ensured no officials have been convicted for them more than 200 lives. last justice has yet to be served. among them. 3 year old alexandra. we will not get justice lebanon. it's impossible. ah, giving the history of you know, everything that has happened already. there was a time when tracy no shower had hope, but she says, the re election of 2 m p. 's charged in connection with the explosion was a wake up call. you can't us so criminal to judge criminal. the last i'll tell you the coming from the people of that we are alone. we shall alone today liberal and political and said terry unfold lines have been exploited by politicians in the

battle for accountability and not just with the baby port blast. and in my own case, that's my father's legacy. trying to circumvent a geopolitical problem in lebanon. you pay an ultimate price for that. mohammed shut off was among the politicians who opposed syrian and iranian influences, lebanon killed in a wave of assassinations. investigations haven't been credible, and culprits were never caught for his son roni, an independent judiciary and having the tools to pursue justice won't be enough. it's a security problem that lebanon is burdened with not every problem in this country as ours. some are and i think those are the steps forward for reform, but the larger picture, i don't think we have control over that. there has been violence when voices are raised. those in power have made the choice between peace or justice. said uncle there, al jazeera battled still ahead,

allow jazeera india's ban on some single use. plastics is causing controversy as people try to adapt while bar munich wants to serve you a stout exchange for your sunflower oil. oh, which is the world. it's all e therapy and track star, the finally delivered when it mattered most details coming out. ah, how i all the talk in europe at least weather wise is about that extreme heat across so much of the constant we have wildfire burning in greece in croatia, spain and portugal, and the southwest of france and the heat. well, that is true, of course, to this area of high pressure,

but more so because we had that heat pumping out of africa running up across spain and portugal, and it will continue to filter its way further north, which over the next couple of days is a 40 image read for sunday and that he makes his way up towards france on monday of 40 celsius there in bordeaux $37.00 in paris getting up to 36 in london could touch 37 here. may be a touch higher as we go on through choose even hearing about the 40 in the u. k as well. if we do get that, that is likely to be somewhere between london and lincoln about eastern side of england as we go on through a choose day. so that me want to keep an eye on. thankfully, somewhat fresh of weather just makes his way in from the west. as we go on through sunday. got some showers caused all the parts of scotland as we go on. 3 west, sunday, some showers there just around the scandinavia. some weather and cooler weather. notice i, which was at east side if you maintain 20 celsius here and we are going to see one or 2 showers continued to feed for the east. ah,

inequality corruption, repression and re, to political. it just decided to cut to the piece of cake. i'm sure it won't be a joke. commentary explores the desperate stage of democracy in lebanon a through the eyes of those who are losing hope. every day o dreams are becoming blue. democracy, maybe democracy for sale on al jazeera. when the news breaks, people having to my home breaking decisions on whether to leave behind their homes and loved ones. when people need to be heard. and the story told that even the home we hope to return one day with exclusive interviews and in depth reports, al jazeera has teens on the ground. president biden need to contain fuel prices

with way to bring you more award winning documentaries, and live nice lou . ah, you're watching out a 0, a reminder of our top stories this our a cargo play in carrying weapons is crashed in northern greece, killing all 8 crew members. the pilot had reportedly requested an emergency landing due to an engine problem, but was unable to reach the runway russian missile strikes if it and number of towns and ukraine follows a declaration from moscow that it was ramping up attacks and all operational areas . a summer heat wave of swept europe, sparking wildfires and leading to hundreds of heat related deaths, france,

portugal grease and spain all trying to cope with scorching temperatures. china is also struggling to manage extreme temperatures. electricians are trying to maintain power grid that a buckling under the strain of relentless heat waves. 68 cities including shanghai of issued red alerts, meaning temperatures exceeding 40 degrees celsius, a forecast for the next 24 hours. bog houghton is a climate change experts at the australian national university. he says reducing greenhouse gas levels quickly is proving difficult, meaning people will have to adapt. there's a particular thing that's happening and that's the typically related to changes in the jet stream. that's a high level, very fast moving band if it circulates the globe. and at the moment that's being changed by climate change. and that's bringing in this particular case, very hot in from site india across towards china at this point. air emissions globally, going up there not turning round the corner and study to go down. and if way to

limit the effects of climate change life, the heat was we're seeing all the files that were saying we have to reduce those emissions very rapidly. and very significantly going down something like 45 percent by 2030. and we had a long way from that at the moment. but given that we haven't been able to turn around those greenhouse gas emission trajectories, it means we have to adapt to the climate change is very experiencing now, and we'll experience over the next decade. so everything from putting more green spaces in cities to, to cool the cities down to i having more heat reflective building materials and road materials so that they don't absorb the energy but reflect it back out into the atmosphere. india has been several single used plastic items and plans to phase or more by the end of the year. but many who rely on the products, they are ready for the transition. awfully metal reports from new delhi, india has a plastic problem. 3 and

a half 1000000 tons of waste is generated every year. most of it from products that are only used once. now the government has been 19 single used plastic goods, including straws and cutlery. some st vendor said they're aware of the ban but have no other option. in new delhi, the state government is promoting paper and bam, board tentative regarding the policy political ahmad awful. but they alternate with our policy is at 2 levels. some of our focus is on alternatives. this enforcement is that no other state is doing what we are doing. we have brought together people from across biddy who are working on alternatives. so shopkeepers and users who feel they don't have options. i can see for themselves in light if we work together on this plan will be successful work we can discuss. but manufacturer said the industry needs more support. it's a great start, but it's definitely not enough because we falsely don't have enough knowledge. shaun's work. we don't have enough suppliers. we don't know if the motor plastic bags are buying what products are we going to use in order to meet it?

we also don't know about if our jeep abilities to sold the country, right. know why? plastic is restricted in some states. this is the 1st nation wide ban. prime minister nadine's removed the announced it in 2019, and the government finalized it last year. but some uses industry, li, does an vendor said they need more time to switch to green alternatives like these . the industry employs millions of people, including faction, workers, and recyclers. waste management researchers said the band requires a transition. india has this huge challenge that we have to work. we have a very complex, informal sector enterprise based on me and have to see that why we have to address the problem of reducing plastic. we also have to see that livelihoods are not last government agencies in new delhi se inspection teams have collected more than $150000.00 in fines. violators could also be arrested. more products are

expected to be banned over the next few months. as india aims to become single use plastic free by the end of the year, pardon him at the larger sierra. new tele gunman have killed 10 people in an attack on traders and indonesia pop. while province, the attackers are believed to be separatist rebels and members of the west. poplar liberation army. police say most of the victims were migrants from other indonesian islands. violence has intensified in the province since last year when rebels, so fire to several schools and killed 2 teachers. thousands of hungarian sir rallied for a 5th day against prime minister victor all bombs, government, saturday's demonstrations were triggered by a major tax hike on small businesses addressing the rally opposition lead up pita. mac is a denounced or benz campaign. promises as lies or ban has been in power for more than a decade, but rising inflation is putting pressure on his administration will spare them as

advisory, i'm actually partial on the government is currently planning such austerity measures that people cannot tolerate them any more. for example, changes in taxes, teachers are underpaid, they cannot make a living and so on. this is why we have to come out to the streets and say, he cannot go any further. like this year's president, joe biden has arrived back in washington after a 4 day trip to the middle east. or saturday. he told a regional summit and saudi arabia the u. s. remains engaged in the region and will not give up influence to russia. china or iran. biden's tour was aimed at strengthening ties, but as our white house correspondent, kimberly how can explains, he failed to achieve what matters most of the american public bringing down oil prices. joe biden wrapped up his 4 day middle east tour with this pledge. united states is not going anywhere. the u. s. president spent his final day of his tread meeting with leaders from the gulf co operation council,

along with jordan egypt, and iran manny. his goal is to reassert america's leadership role. one he fears is slowly being eroded by geo political rivals. rule becoming clear to me how closely woven america's interests are with the successes. normally, we will not walk away and leave a vacuum to be filled by china. russia ran by didn't faces high inflation back home driven partly by a spike in energy prices. so he's pushing gulf leaders, including saudi arabia, to ramp up oil production and bring down fuel costs a goal. he's failed to achieve the game. look at, we don't know if you had the magic kingdom or carry out it's rolled with regards to oil and gas production, as it announced increasing its production capacity to 13000000 barrels
